Related Product Information for Mycophenolic Acid biochemical
Mycophenolic acid is a common Penicillium metabolite first reported in the 1930s as a possible mycotoxin. Re-investigation has shown mycophenolic acid to display a broad range of pharmacological activities including antitumor, antiviral, antifungal and antiprotozoan activities. However, it was the discovery that mycophenolic acid was a potent immunosuppressant, useful to prevent kidney transplant rejection, that led to its commercial development and that of related semi-synthetics as pharmaceuticals. Mycophenolic acid acts by inihibition of inosine monophosphate dehydrogenase, controlling the rate of de novo purine synthesis in the proliferation of B and T lymphocytes.

Product Notes
The Mycophenolic Acid (Catalog #AAA6020976) is a Biochemical produced from Penicillium sp. MST-FP1988 and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Mycophenolic Acid, Biochemical" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
